How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb used (not included). With a recommended 60W equivalent ST64 vintage bulb, expect approximately 800 lumens—bright enough for accent or task lighting, but not as a primary room light.
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shade has a reflective, iridescent finish that adds sparkle and diffuses light softly. For a classic warm tone, use a 2700K-3000K LED bulb. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 11.75 in wide x 17.62 in high, with a 16 in extension from the wall. The backplate measures 4.5 in wide x 7.88 in high. Ideal for walls with standard stud spacing; mount at eye level (60-66 in from floor).
